I am either going to get k&n fipk air intake or 4 inch exhaust tips next. What do you guys think I should buy next? Go for a little more ponies or looks?

cold air kit...should've been your first mod, before pulleys and tune

well it was like that when I bought it. The original owner removed the snorkel/ air silencer and put a k&n drop in filter on. A cold air intake isn't that big of a deal where it "Should have been" (Fixed) on first before pulley.

Really?

"Needs" and "should have been" are not exactly the same thing, now are they?

It sounds like you already have all the answers and should just go ahead and mod it like you want to.

/end thread;:bored:

Definitely do the tips!

Didn't know how to word it to say his opinion was wrong saying the cold air should've been on there first. I fixed it for you as well

Many people run the stock intake tube with a k&n filter, even with whipples, ports, etc when making big power. I did an intake on mine mostly because I think the stock ones are ugly. I want a Gen 2 RAI or high boost by they are ridiculous money.

I'd do the tips. If your car is already tuned, and you do a new intake you'd probably want a new tune anyways which would make you spend more money. Tips ftw, I just put SLP tips and my car looks 100 times better from the rear.

Yea idk what that guy was talking about. and it is just a mail order tune. I am getting a real tune sooner or later. I have a thread about what kind of tips do you mind posting a picture in that thread of the tips you have?

IMO there is a lot better intakes out there than k&n's. I'd say if your only looking to spend a little go with exhaust tips.

Tips first.....but I'd go with a paint matched JLT RAI over a k&n Kit


I was going to go with the Jlt but I narrowed it down to the k&n. The cars black so I would've just got the textured one.
Does anyone know the Id of the stock air intake at the throttle body ?
